Hey everyone, I just wanted to say thanks for the best gaming community I've ever been a part of. My deployment orders came a little early and I'm off to another tour early next month in the good ole' Anbar province.

I won't be online very much from here on out and so this is my farewell for now, and hopefully when I get back I'll still be on a few of your friends list.

If you see my profile online in xbox live watching movies or playing arcade titles, be nice its my wife

"The Marines I have seen around the world have the cleanest bodies, the filthiest minds, the highest morale, and the lowest morals of any group of animals I have ever seen. Thank God for the United States Marine Corps!" ..............Eleanor Roosevelt, 1945.

Take care of yourself. Best wishes both from myself and my wife. You'll be in our thoughts while you're away.

Thanks Pete! I'll think of you in Phoenix when my brown ass is burning in the sun. Also I'll be heading down to YUMA Arizona to buy a new handgun, as long as we provide the ammo we are allowed to bring our own handgun of choice.Here's a pic of my patrol formation when I have Harkonis or Jarrod type of Marines in my squad. Jk jk

Take care of yourself out there Kato. And if you want some of us to write you, let us know! You could zip Hark your mailing address when you get there.

Roger that. You can all tell me how I'm missing out on all the great games coming out

THEY CAN'T TAKE MY BROWN MAN!!!!

GL, don't get shot, or if you do make sure it's in an ass cheek so you get sent home early (and hope they don't sew up the wrong hole)!

Here are the knuckleheads that are going to watch my back. I'm the brown one in this picture CeeKay...can you find me? edit:i have a crappy camera

I'm just happy that I won't have anyone shooting at me in my desert. Just remember your Halo skills. "B" is for "bitch slap."

Too bad Yuma is a bit of a haul from Phoenix. It's about 3 hours of nothing. And not exactly a place high on my list for weekend visits. Although isn't Yuma about 9 hours from San Jose? If so, how do you plan to get there? If your route comes anywhere near Phoenix let me know. Tucson is only about 90 minutes away from Phoenix, so even if you travel through Tucson we could still get together. I know a great wine bar right downtown. Although I don't think they serve Bud Light.

When I told my wife you were nearing deployment she said, "He'll be fine. You can never hit the fucker in a game, and that's without any cammo. With cammo he'll be like a damn ninja. And he's Asian, so he's already a ninja. Tell him to come some safe so that we can get back to shooting at him."

I hope we might get a chance to see you before you leave the states. I'll at least have a chance to introduce you to good beer.

Let me know if there will be an address we'll be able to write to. I'll only have to write once and you'll have something that will take all 6 to 7 months to read through.

You don't fool me, that's you guys checking for landmines the old fashioned way.

Nono, that's the AI for the new Rainbow Six game.... Kato is in the lead "checking out the new maps".

I was recently comparing stuff because I've been wanting to get back into shooting... I was looking more at .40 SW stuff, but they generally have the same designs chambered for the big 3 (9mm, .40, .45). The HK USP was what I was originally looking at, but as I did more research the Sig P22x stuff seemed like it might be a little better, or at least on the level depending on what you like. Are you going to a try before you buy place? I don't know what you want to spend... they are both kind of pricey, but maybe you get a discount? That Sig P220 Combat model looks like the perfect fashion accessory for a Marine. Those S&W Sigma series pistols seem decent for what looks to be considerably less money.

You have to buy your own sidearm? Can't the military sort of...give you one?

The internet center here is so ghetto , anyways.....

We get issued the military standard M9 9 mm Beretta Pistol and its ok, but I need more stopping power/penetration due to the fact insurgents are wearing better armor nowadays. And besides, I chose the juggernaut perk for this tour.
